Seminararbeit Rechnernetze

In diesem Semester habe ich bei Professor Karl am Seminar "Rechnernetze" teilgenommen.

Meine Arbeit hat sich mit verteilten Hashtablen mit direkten Routing (One-Hop Distributed Hashtables) beschäftigt.

Abstract:

Distributed Hash Tables (DHT) are an important substrate of several peer-to- peer (P2P) applications. Most existing approaches favor a small memory and net- work overhead over lookup latency. New approaches question this tradeoff and allow a lookup with using only one hop, but they store the routing information for all nodes on each node in the system and so require higher background traffic to maintain the routing tables up-to-date. In this paper the design of three one-hop DHT approaches is described and compared in detail. This comparison shows that different assumptions are used to analyze the approaches. Therefore, several parameters are inspected and an uni- fied parameter setting is extract. Using the unified parameter setting, a fair and meaningful comparison of the approaches is possible. In particular, the bandwidth consumption, fault tolerance properties, the usage of heterogeneity in the P2P net- work, and the scalability are compared. The comparison shows that the unified parameter setting lead to different relative results as originally stated by the approach designers.
